Information on Business Segments | Information on Business Segments Overview We operate in four business segments: Aeronautics, MFC, RMS and Space. We organize our business segments based on the nature of products and services offered. Following is a brief description of the activities of our business segments: • Aeronautics – Engaged in the research, design, development, manufacture, integration, sustainment, support and upgrade of advanced military aircraft, including combat and air mobility aircraft, unmanned air vehicles and related technologies. • Missiles and Fire Control – Provides air and missile defense systems; tactical missiles and air-to-ground precision strike weapon systems; logistics; fire control systems; mission operations support, readiness, engineering support and integration services; manned and unmanned ground vehicles; and energy management solutions. • Rotary and Mission Systems – Designs, manufactures, services and supports various military and commercial helicopters, surface ships, sea and land-based missile defense systems, radar systems, sea and air-based mission and combat systems, command and control mission solutions, cyber solutions, and simulation and training solutions. • Space – Engaged in the research and design, development, engineering and production of satellites, space transportation systems, and strategic, advanced strike, and defensive systems. Space provides network-enabled situational awareness and integrates complex space and ground global systems to help our customers gather, analyze and securely distribute critical intelligence data. Space is also responsible for various classified systems and services in support of vital national security systems. Operating profit for our Space business segment also includes our share of earnings for our 50% ownership interest in ULA, which provides expendable launch services to the U.S. Government and commercial customers. Our investment in ULA totaled $571 million and $585 million at December 31, 2022 and 2021. Selected Financial Data by Business Segment Net sales of our business segments in the following tables exclude intersegment sales as these activities are eliminated in consolidation and thus are not included in management’s evaluation of performance of each segment. Business segment operating profit includes our share of earnings or losses from equity method investees as the operating activities of the equity method investees are closely aligned with the operations of our business segments. Summary Operating Results Sales and operating profit for each of our business segments were as follows (in millions): 2022 2021 2020 Net sales Aeronautics $ 26,987 $ 26,748 $ 26,266 Missiles and Fire Control 11,317 11,693 11,257 Rotary and Mission Systems 16,148 16,789 15,995 Space 11,532 11,814 11,880 Total net sales $ 65,984 $ 67,044 $ 65,398 Operating profit Aeronautics $ 2,866 $ 2,799 $ 2,843 Missiles and Fire Control 1,635 1,648 1,545 Rotary and Mission Systems 1,673 1,798 1,615 Space 1,045 1,134 1,149 Total business segment operating profit 7,219 7,379 7,152 Unallocated items FAS/CAS pension operating adjustment 1,709 1,960 1,876 Severance and other charges (a) (100) (36) (27) Other, net (b) (480) (180) (357) Total unallocated, net 1,129 1,744 1,492 Total consolidated operating profit $ 8,348 $ 9,123 $ 8,644 (a) Severance and other charges in 2022 include $100 million ($79 million, or $0.31 per share, after-tax) charge related to actions at our RMS business segment, which include severance costs for reduction of positions and asset impairment charges; $36 million ($28 million, or $0.10 per share, after-tax) charge during 2021 associated with plans to close and consolidate certain facilities and reduce total workforce within our RMS business segment; and $27 million ($21 million, or $0.08 per share, after-tax) charge during 2020 related to the planned elimination of certain positions primarily at our corporate functions. (b) Other, net in 2020 includes a noncash impairment charge of $128 million ($96 million, or $0.34 per share, after-tax) for our investment in the international equity method investee, AMMROC. (See “Note 1 – Organization and Significant Accounting Policies”). Unallocated Items Business segment operating profit excludes the FAS/CAS pension operating adjustment described below, a portion of corporate costs not considered allowable or allocable to contracts with the U.S. Government under the applicable U.S. Government cost accounting standards (CAS) or federal acquisition regulations (FAR), and other items not considered part of management’s evaluation of segment operating performance such as a portion of management and administration costs, legal fees and settlements, environmental costs, stock-based compensation expense, changes in the fair value of investments held in a trust for deferred compensation plans, retiree benefits, significant severance actions, significant asset impairments, gains or losses from divestitures, and other miscellaneous corporate activities. Excluded items are included in the reconciling item “Unallocated items” between operating profit from our business segments and our consolidated operating profit. See “Note 1 – Organization and Significant Accounting Policies” (under the caption “Use of Estimates”) for a discussion related to certain factors that may impact the comparability of net sales and operating profit of our business segments. FAS/CAS Pension Operating Adjustment Our business segments’ results of operations include pension expense only as calculated under U.S. Government Cost Accounting Standards (CAS), which we refer to as CAS pension cost. We recover CAS pension and other postretirement benefit plan cost through the pricing of our products and services on U.S. Government contracts and, therefore, recognize CAS pension cost in each of our business segment’s net sales and cost of sales. Our consolidated financial statements must present pension and other postretirement benefit plan (expense) income calculated in accordance with Financial Accounting Standards (FAS) requirements under U.S. GAAP. The operating portion of the total FAS/CAS pension adjustment represents the difference between the service cost component of FAS pension (expense) income and total CAS pension cost. The non-service FAS pension (expense) income components are included in non-service FAS pension (expense) income in our consolidated statements of earnings. As a result, to the extent that CAS pension cost exceeds the service cost component of FAS pension (expense) income, we have a favorable FAS/CAS pension operating adjustment. The total FAS/CAS pension adjustments, including the service and non-service cost components of FAS pension (expense) income for our qualified defined benefit pension plans, were as follows (in millions): 2022 2021 2020 Total FAS (expense) income and CAS cost FAS pension (expense) income $ (1,058) $ (1,398) $ 118 Less: CAS pension cost 1,796 2,066 1,977 Total FAS/CAS pension adjustment $ 738 $ 668 $ 2,095 Service and non-service cost reconciliation FAS pension service cost $ (87) $ (106) $ (101) Less: CAS pension cost 1,796 2,066 1,977 Total FAS/CAS pension operating adjustment 1,709 1,960 1,876 Non-service FAS pension (expense) income (971) (1,292) 219 Total FAS/CAS pension adjustment $ 738 $ 668 $ 2,095 The total FAS/CAS pension adjustment in 2022 reflects a noncash, non-operating pension settlement charge of $1.5 billion ($1.2 billion, or $4.33 per share, after-tax) recognized in connection with the transfer of $4.3 billion of our gross defined benefit pension obligations and related plan assets to an insurance company in the second quarter of 2022. The total FAS/CAS pension adjustment in 2021 reflects a noncash, non-operating pension settlement charge of $1.7 billion ($1.3 billion, or $4.72 per share, after-tax) in connection with the transfer of $4.9 billion of our gross defined benefit pension obligations and related plan assets to an insurance company in the third quarter of 2021. See “Note 11 – Postretirement Benefit Plans” included in our Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.
